# Other Goodies

> A collection of useful Equinox systems and features, including license reinstatement, job limits, the Pause Menu, and Car Play.

Not every useful feature needs its own massive guide.

This page covers a handful of systems that are worth knowing about as you get settled into **Equinox Roleplay**.

You'll find information here about:

* License reinstatement
* Job limits
* The Pause Menu
* Car Play

***

# Licensing

Lost your driver's license?

Getting it back isn't automatic.

If your license has been revoked or otherwise removed, you'll need to complete the reinstatement process.

<Info>
  ### Reinstatement Fee

  The mandatory license reinstatement fee is:

  ## **\$500**
</Info>

To begin the process, speak with **any Police Officer**.

They can help point you toward the appropriate reinstatement process.

***

## Poor Driving Records

Not every license issue can necessarily be resolved with a simple reinstatement fee.

If your character has developed a particularly poor driving record, they may be required to take the matter further.

<Warning>
  ### DOT Petition May Be Required

  Characters with a sufficiently poor driving history may be required to file a petition with the **Department of Transportation**.

  This process is handled through the **Federal Government**.
</Warning>

The more trouble your character creates behind the wheel, the harder it may become to simply pay a fee and move on.

***

# Job Limits

You are no longer restricted to choosing only one or two general civilian jobs.

Most civilian jobs are open to anyone.

<Info>
  ### General Civilian Jobs

  You can freely work available civilian jobs without being locked into a single career.

  Some jobs may require specific equipment before you can begin.
</Info>

For certain work, you'll need:

* A **Hard Hat** from the supermarket
* An appropriate **work outfit**

<Tip>
  Keep a basic work outfit ready if your character regularly moves between civilian jobs.

  It saves you from having to rebuild the same look every time you clock in somewhere else.
</Tip>

***

## Whitelist Job Limit

Whitelist jobs work differently from open civilian jobs.

You may hold up to:

## **3 Whitelist Jobs**

<Warning>
  ### Whitelist Jobs Are Limited

  While general civilian work is broadly accessible, characters are limited to **3 whitelist jobs**.
</Warning>

This helps prevent one character from occupying every major whitelisted role at the same time.

***

# Pause Menu

The **Pause Menu** is more useful than just somewhere to adjust settings.

It acts as a central hub for several important server features.

<Frame caption="Equinox Pause Menu">

</Frame>

Depending on your permissions and role, you may find options related to:

* Server information
* Announcements
* Job postings
* Marketplace advertisements
* Rules
* Additional server tools

***

# Announcements & Job Posts

Authorized staff members can use the Pause Menu to publish announcements.

Users with the appropriate authority may also be able to post job-related information.

</Frame>

<Info>
  ### Check the Pause Menu Regularly

  Important information may be posted there instead of being announced repeatedly elsewhere.
</Info>

***

# Marketplace Ads

The Pause Menu also connects into systems that allow you to advertise things through the marketplace.

<Frame caption="Marketplace Features">
  <img alt="Marketplace options available through the Equinox Pause Menu" title="Marketplace" src="https://mintcdn.com/equinox-roleplay/VzcmxkY403roN1cS/images/chrome_dDHPmWSQ7k.png?fit=max&auto=format&n=VzcmxkY403roN1cS&q=85&s=61000c8fd8c6ff21206de41596a9bb1a" className="dark:hidden" width="770" height="433" data-path="images/chrome_dDHPmWSQ7k.png" />

  <img alt="Marketplace options available through the Equinox Pause Menu" title="Marketplace" src="https://mintcdn.com/equinox-roleplay/VzcmxkY403roN1cS/images/chrome_dDHPmWSQ7k.png?fit=max&auto=format&n=VzcmxkY403roN1cS&q=85&s=61000c8fd8c6ff21206de41596a9bb1a" className="hidden dark:block" width="770" height="433" data-path="images/chrome_dDHPmWSQ7k.png" />
</Frame>

This can be useful when advertising:

* Vehicles
* Property
* Services
* Legal goods
* Other marketplace listings

<Tip>
  If your character has something to sell, don't assume the only option is standing around waiting for somebody to ask.

  Use the tools available to advertise it.
</Tip>

# Rules & Server Information

The Pause Menu also provides quick access to important server information.
